I haven't worn them, so I can't comment on the feel, but there are a few things that catch my eye. In the 10th photo, there's probably a hole. It looks like it was poked with a needle. I don't remember doing that. In the 13th photo, there's what looks like snot. I sneezed while checking them... No, no! It's something shiny that looks like it. I couldn't wipe it off. I couldn't rub it off with an eraser. I couldn't knock it off. I couldn't get rid of it by yelling "Oi!" I couldn't get rid of it by begging, "Please!" In the 15th photo, the yellowing is probably from the glue, or something like that. It's in a similar spot on the other side. It's not on the other shoe. The black stuff looks like there's a gap, and it seems like something is stuck in there. It gives the impression that the thread or something inside isn't properly in place. Other than that, it's probably all original. The laces, I didn't take enough photos to show them, but they're a little discolored. If pure white is 100, they're about 85.25314425635. Not bad, right? Yeah, they're not quite crisp white. It's more noticeable because the shoes are so white. If it bothers you, replace them. No. I'm sorry to trouble you, but please replace them. There might be other things. They might be lighter than they appear in the photos. If you're interested, please consider them.
